Thomson Reuters has kicked off ILTACON 2024 by unveiling CoCounsel 2.0, the next generation of its GenAI assistant.
We’re told that CoCounsel 2.0 will be:
• Accessible from within Thomson Reuters products, beginning with Westlaw Precision and Practical Law;
• Accessible from within Microsoft 365, beginning with Word, Teams, and Outlook;
• Able to access customer documents directly, through server-to-server integrations with data storage solutions iManage, NetDocuments, and SharePoint.
TR says that CoCounsel 2.0 will work three times faster than the first generation of CoCounsel, generating answers in seconds, not minutes, and be able to provide more nuanced results after considering the full context and history.
David Wong, chief product officer for Thomson Reuters said: “CoCounsel 2.0 is founded upon our ability to combine our data, expertise, and trusted content with cutting edge technology. Partnering with leading LLM providers is a key part of our strategy and will help us deliver even more for our customers, enabling them to accomplish what they need to evolve their businesses more quickly and more effectively than ever.”
CoCounsel leverages multiple LLMs including most recently Google Gemini 1.5 Pro. Testing shows that a blend of multiple LLMs delivers optimal accuracy and user experience.
They will be demonstrating the new product during ILTACON.
